What channel?? :)

The following is supposedly an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well. Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)? Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following: First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different Religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added. This gives two possibilities: 1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose. 2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over. So which is it? If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you," and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct...leaving only Heaven thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God." THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A"

Good stuff!! I didn't realized that the Acadia looked so much like the North Shore of Lake Supeior!!

Sorry to leave so soon -- but it's late here, and I have to be up, and at work in 6 hours. Grr! :)

The mini-coopers are so small --- (HOW SMALL ARE THEYYYYY??????) They need an airbag on the roof too!!

Sorry -- I could only find a pic of a repentint catapult!!!

The reason I *care*, is because the editors had *ultimate* control over what was, and what was NOT printed. Since you value the *written work* of docvic so highly, and then say some editors were *less major* -- that indicates to me that there is a hierarchy there. I'm NOT trying to dismiss the issue, since you brought it up, and thought it worthy of mention in the first place.

???? Excuse me -- I don't understand. That's the same thing as categorizing PROPHETS, into the *major* & *minor* category. After all --- if they were *prophets* --- Who decides if they are one, or the other??

Oh -- and this is NOT an attack. I'm curious how you determine which are, and which aren't.

Machines have no heart. :unsure:

Hemp Oatmeal Bread Ingredients: 8 oz. water 2.5 oz. milk 1 oz. (1/4 stick) unsalted butter 1 oz. hemp oil 2 oz. maple syrup 2 tsp. salt 10 oz. bread flour 3 oz. whole wheat flour 6 oz. thick rolled oats 3 oz. shelled hemp seed 1 Tbsp. yeast Method: Weigh all ingredients in bread machine work bowl in order above. Start bread machine. Scrape down the work bowl a few times during the initial mixing to get the ingredients off the sides and incorporated in the dough ball. You may need to sprinkle in a little extra bread flour if the dough is too wet.

I've seen those *mini-coopers*. I wouldn't want to drive one. A semi truck tire is larger than they are! :blink:

Are those the ones? :) Sooooo --- some *editors* are *walking*, and others are just *talking*, eh??? How do you decide which is which??

Someone asked me how long I've lived here in Minney-soda the other day. When I thought about it -- the answer (to me) was very sobering. 28 years. Seems just like yesterday that I loaded up that U-haul truck in Indiana, and headed North.

I think that is an excellent example --- not mediocre at all!

Tee time is probably regulated by the TC, and scheduled around *T* time (Twig). And ya have to really operate believing ------ if ya wanna PLAY all nine, all the time.

The *cheese-head* state (Wisconsin) is a few miles south of me. Meebe I should move there, and *expand my edjy-cation* some, eh? ;)

Well ya ruffled MY feathers!!! Harumphhhhhhhhh!!!!!

The salad dressing?? ;)

Snooty Farkleface Welcome to GreaseSpot!!

Shell --- it was great!!! Thanks for doing it. :)

I don't mind answering questions. Shucks -- if someone asks -- it's worthy of an answer. What I don't get --- is the absolute refusal to answer questions, then relegate them to the *back-burner*, and ignore them until they go *away*. :( but hey -- that's *just me* (anyone concurr??)

OK --- I agree to disagree. I knew the man. I heard him teach (live) some of what you have on tape. You think what you will. God bless, and have at it. T'is a free country. And I DON'T mean this faceciously --- The best to you, and your journey through life. :) I (and others here) were once on the road that you are on now. I have NEVER tried to say I am right, and opposing viewpoints are wrong ----- BUT I HAVE SAID what I have gone through. If you don't want to listen to what I, or others here have to say ---- Fine. That is your choice, and up to you to make. I've mentioned the age difference (in the past), but will refrain from doing so here. You have a path to travel -- as did we all, and I hope you find a good one. Honestly! You're entitled to find your way -- just as we did ours. I hope you do. :)
